Description

Nether Liberton House is an 18th-century, two-storey, three-bay house that was remodelled around 1840. It has a near rectangular plan and is harled, painted orange, with polished sandstone dressings. The building features strip quoins and a cornice.

On the west elevation, there is a lean-to porch in the central bay, which has a boarded timber door with decorative iron hinges on the left side. There is a single window in the porch and another above it on the first floor. To the outer right, there is an advanced gabled bay with single windows on both floors, and the outer left bay also has single windows on both floors.

The north elevation has an M-gable. The outer right features a window that was formed from a door on the ground floor, with a single window above it on the first floor.

The south elevation has an advanced gabled bay to the outer right with single windows on both floors, and the left bay also has single windows on both floors. A painted coped rubble wall at right angles to the outer right connects to an outbuilding.

The east elevation includes a lean-to porch at the centre with a boarded timber door featuring decorative iron hinges on the left return. There are single windows in the centre and to the right return, as well as a single window on the first floor above and in both the outer right and outer left bays. A small square window is situated between the central and left windows.

The house features a variety of glazing patterns, including 12-pane and 4-pane timber sash and case windows. It has a graded grey slate roof, with a single corniced octagonal flue on the west elevation and paired corniced octagonal flues elsewhere.

Inside, there are architraved doorways, panelled doors, cast-iron balusters with a timber handrail on the stone stair, plain plaster cornices, and a decorative plaster ceiling rose.

The boundary walls consist of a high coped rubble sandstone wall surrounding the garden to the north. There are modern single-storey flat-roofed outbuildings to the south of the main building.
